Thiruvananthapuram :Vaccination has been a pleasant experience. There is no need for any kind of anxiety at all, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan told reporters on Wednesday, after getting a shot of Covid vaccine at Thycaud Hospital. Both CM and wife Kamala got themselves inoculated.
Some injections cause a slight burning sensation. However, covid vaccine has none of that. Took rest for half-an-hour after the shot and I feel fine. The Health Minister got inoculated yesterday. She too has no problem at all.
Scores of people have become willing to take the covid vaccine. I recommend that each among us similar willingness. Mankind as a race is bestowed with capacity to prevent deadly pandemics that surface from time to time.
In my childhood, people died en masse from smallpox. Now we have prevented that disease through vaccine. We were able to prevent polio too with vaccination the similar way. I mention these because, at least a few persons are engaged in propagating rumours aimed against the vaccine and while public at large do not accept that view, at least a few are scared of the falsified prospects, said chief minister. Health Minister KK Shailaja too accompanied CM at the vaccination centre.
